Cornucopia was a city on a planet with many different native species. It was a thriving spaceport before it was hit by a rad-storm caused by a Ziggurat made from psychic metal which blocked every radio signal and sent the planet into poverty, which resulted in the Crime Lords rising to power led by Granny Solasta. At some point, MI6 began to monitor events on the planet through Annabel Lake, who was posing as Miss Ghost, a Toliakk under the employ of Solasta, and had moved there with her father. When the Eleventh Doctor and his companions arrived, the Crime Lords forced him to take them onto the Ziggurat with his TARDIS. However, they fought over its riches, and ultimately they all perished aboard the ship. When the Doctor destroyed the Star of Solitude, the key, the Ziggurat exploded and the planet was finally freed. (COMIC: The Cornucopia Caper) A year later, it was a thriving spaceport again. "Miss Ghost" was now in port authority, using her position to continue her investigation into psychic metal. The Hunters arrived in the city searching for the metal that the Ziggurat was made of. When they learned of its destruction they attacked, devastating the city and intending to destroy the planet. However, they were distracted by the arrival of Ian and Barbara and left.
